RAINBOW GREENHOUSES ยท IT + SBI + REPORTING PORTFOLIO ยท 2026

Overview โ–ผ

One view,
Three workstreams.

A combined view of IT Strategic, SBI / Master Data, and Reporting work. Each project is tagged with its workstream so you can filter to one team or see the whole portfolio. Compact view by default to handle the density.

Horizon: configurable (12 / 18 / 24 mo)
Focus: IT + SBI / Master Data
Driver: Priority Score
Saved
Business Champion โ–ผ
Every project needs a Business Champion
A non-IT-team user from the actual operating teams (Growing, Operations, etc.) with the authority and motivation to push the change through. Champions tell us when scoring is wrong, when the feature missed the real workflow, and hold their teams accountable for using what we ship. Without a champion, even the highest-priority project will fail to land.
Capacity Risk โ–ผ
Capacity risk flagged. IT resources are stretched thin. Champions and owners must be formally identified and committed before project execution. Unassigned roles below represent active blockers to roadmap delivery.

Principles โ–ผ
01
Business First
Every project must tie to a measurable business outcome. No technology for its own sake.
02
Capacity Honesty
We commit only to what the team can realistically deliver. Overcommitment serves no one.
03
Ruthless Prioritisation
High-value, low-effort projects get resources first. We explicitly deprioritise the rest.
04
Visible Progress
Status is always current. Blockers are raised immediately, not hidden until review.
About โ–ผ
Portfolio context

This dashboard combines three distinct workstreams โ€” IT Strategic (HR systems, enterprise tools, infrastructure), SBI / Master Data (Spring Big platform features, growing operations, master data), and Reporting (analytics and data reporting) โ€” into a single portfolio view. The two workstreams have different teams (IT team vs SBI team), different role models (IT projects use Project Sponsor / Tech PM / IT Lead / Champion; SBI projects use SBI Resource / IT Lead / Champion), and different scoring approaches (SBI uses formal Vร—UรทE priority math; IT projects historically used capacity planning only).

The Workstream selector at the top is the primary lens โ€” flip between "All workstreams," "IT Strategic," and "SBI / Master Data" to dial the dashboard in for the conversation you're having. Capacity bars, top priorities, the matrix, and the activity timeline all respect the active filter. Capacity is tracked per team โ€” IT and SBI capacities don't pool because the teams are different people with different skills.

For day-to-day work, switch to the workstream you actually run. For exec reviews, "All workstreams" gives the portfolio-level picture leadership wants.

How priority scoring works

Each project is rated on three dimensions, all 0โ€“5: Value (impact on revenue, customers, strategy, risk reduction), Urgency (when this needs to happen), and Effort (how much team time it takes). Priority Score = (Value ร— Urgency) รท Effort โ€” high value ร— urgency lifts the score, high effort divides it down. Quadrants follow the standard 2ร—2: Value โ‰ฅ 3.5 is "high value," Effort โ‰ค 3 is "low effort." Top-left quadrant projects (high value, low effort) win the day.

Effort is coupled with capacity. The Effort score (0โ€“5) maps deterministically to person-months: 1=1pm, 2=2pm, 3=4pm, 4=8pm, 5=12pm. Drag the Effort slider on either side and the other side updates instantly. This keeps prioritization scoring honest about the actual capacity cost.

How to use this dashboard

Status updates โ€” open any project card and post a note. It timestamps automatically and shows in the Recent & Upcoming Activity feed.

Role slots โ€” drag a person's name from the IT People Pool onto a project's role slot. Saves immediately. The Workload section tracks who's on what.

Milestones โ€” add milestones to each project with a target month. Check them off when done. Overdue milestones highlight in red.

Priority Matrix โ€” updates live as you adjust Value/Urgency/Effort sliders. High-value, low-effort projects appear top-left. Avoid quadrant (bottom-right) projects need a hard conversation.

How the 2×2 matrix works

Each project is plotted by Value (x-axis) and Urgency (y-axis). The four quadrants are: Do Now (high value, high urgency), Plan (high value, low urgency), Quick Wins (low value, high urgency), and Deprioritize (low value, low urgency). Priority score = V × U ÷ E, where E is effort (1–5 scale).

How capacity works

Each workstream team has a configurable headcount and available capacity % (accounting for meetings, BAU, etc.). The Timeline & Capacity section compares committed effort (sum of project effort scores) against available capacity. Red bars indicate overcommitment.

Role definitions

SBI Resource — Owns delivery from the SBI/Master Data workstream. IT Lead — Technical lead from IT Strategic. Technical Project Manager — Coordinates cross-functional work and tracks milestones. Business Champion — Accountable business-side sponsor who drives adoption and decisions.

Status colors

Not Started — Project is queued but work has not begun. In Discovery — Requirements and scoping underway. In Progress — Active delivery. In Review — Pending sign-off or UAT. Complete — Delivered and in monitoring/BAU.

Timeline conventions

The Gantt timeline shows active, non-completed projects plotted by start month and duration. The vertical line marks today. Projects without a start month are omitted. The horizon control adjusts how far into the future is shown. Bars are coloured by workstream.

Not-started projects (no milestones completed yet) appear as compact dashed rows โ€” they take up minimal vertical space but preserve their planned position on the timeline. Hover over a row to see the full project name. Click any project name to jump to and expand its project card below.

The Timeline & Capacity section is collapsed by default โ€” click the section header to expand it.

Recent & Upcoming Activity

The activity feed shows a chronological timeline of project events โ€” completed milestones, project completions, and upcoming kickoffs. Each row shows the event date, project name, a status pill, workstream badge, and the next upcoming milestone for that project.

Dot colours: green = project complete, yellow = milestone reached, blue outline = upcoming kickoff.

Click any project name in the feed to jump to and expand that project's card in the Projects section below.

About the data

All data is stored in Supabase and syncs across all users in real time. Changes to priority scores, status, roles, and milestones are saved automatically. The dashboard is restricted to Rainbow Greenhouses staff via Azure Active Directory (AAD) sign-in.
